Concerns of note: yesterday I mysteriously got mosquito bites on both forearms, one shoulder, my collarbone and one knee all within a span of say, 18 minutes; my internet keeps futzing in and out; will I go to yoga tonight?
Last weekend I went to my aunt's house in Westchester. I do love that train ride:
Speaking of train ride, here is a sunset over Lancaster County as seen from the train.
Mostly everything I've been doing includes reading. Here are some excerpts from things I've recently read.
"Like Hillary she lacks taste; her consumer preferences seem to have been rendered into being by the Mall at Short Hills." --New York Magazine on Michelle Obama (3/23/09)
"Oranges float, but these [half orange, half tangerines] have so much sugar in them that if you drop one into a bucket of water it will go straight to the bottom." --Oranges by John McPhee
"And not just brilliant but inclusive and generous--he was very rarely as assholic as he had a reputation for being." --New York Magazine on Larry Summers (3/30/09)
Assholic. I can't believe I haven't used this word before. So succinct and yet so descriptive.
